     Realistic diction 
  • The Goonies: One of Mikey's general habits involve struggling to figure out the right word, often stumbling over himself repeatedly just to get a phrase out. His recounting of the story of One-Eyed Willy is also not a masterful rendition but very perfunctory to the point of almost being a run-on sentence, and sometimes backtracks when he forgot a detail.
  • Suburbia: Completely averted, since the cast are all amateurs who talk like real teenagers.
  • Space Jam: A New Legacy: LeBron noticeably tries to find the right words to use when properly apologizing to Dom, eventually saying that "[he] don't even know if [he's] saying this right".
  • Silver Linings Playbook: Averted. People will talk over each other, interrupt and shout louder to get heard.
